## Abstract The purpose of this work was to study how mineral fillers would behave in a polypropylene (PP) matrix when PP modified with maleic anhydride (MA) and/or itaconic acid (IA) was used as a coupling agent in the preparation of mineralโfilled PP composites. The composites were characterized

Boehmite nanoparticles are surface modified with alkyl phosphorous acid to improve their dispersion in polypropylene. Effective grafting is evidenced by NMR, elemental analysis and by the fact that the dispersion ability (or disagglomeration) of grafted boehmite particle in nonpolar solvent is signi
The tensile properties of polypropylene (PP) ยฎlled with two A-glass beads with the same size, PP/3000 (glass bead surface pretreated with a silane coupling agent) and PP/3000U (no surface pretreatment), have been measured by using an Instron materials testing machine at room temperature, to identify
